I just happened to me last week, I found some repetitive code for data access and consuming web services, and I thought I can optimize it and replace and cut a bunch of code here and there, well I went too far, and yes all the sudden there were five or six things no longer working, then I said, stop! just go one step behind, what about just getting all the data access, In good shape this time, Then I rolled back my changes, and focus only on the data access, I left the web services for a next refactoring session. And It goes better, at least after 1 day I get the data access in shape (most likely) and nothing is broken.
So bottom line, Yes I agree go gradually on refactor, and when you feel your getting injured by the amount of effort ,slow down, or even step back.I think It has different names and faces but goes to the same, sometimes to much refactoring my get us intoxicated with our own code.

I call it free-solo refactoring, like the suicidal climbing style (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_soloing)Oh yes. I’ve done it and regretted it.http://nomorehacks.wordpress.com/2008/04/04/today-was-a-good-day/

An additional thought: We didn't gain that 20+ pounds in one month, likewise our code although not perfect, starts out pretty well and deteriorates over time. It's these small refactorings that will improve the 'healthiness' of our codebase.Great comparison.
